Topographic sheets —
Note. — The Geological Survey is making a topographic map of the United
States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected without reference
to political divisions, and are designated bvsome prominent town or natural
feature found on them. Three scales are used, 1:62,500,1:125,000, and 1:250,000.
These correspond, approximately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear
inch on the map. The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in
height by 11.5 to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width vary-
ing with "the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the
reverse of each sheet catalogued below.
About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has been
mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, Connecticut,
Rhode Island, New Jersey, and the District of Columbia are completely
mapped. Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Survey at 5c each; but in
lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same sheet or of different sheets, the
price is 3c each. In no case can orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless
the sum remitted solely for topographic maps amounts to at least $3.00.

Topographic sheets —
Note.— The Geological Survey is making a topographic map of the United
States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected without reference
to political divisions, and are designated by some prominent town or natural
feature found on them. Three scales are used, 1:62,500, 1:125,000, and 1:250,000.
These correspond, approximately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear
inch on the map. The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in
height by 11.5 to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width vary-
ing with the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the
reverse of each sheet catalogued below.
About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has been
mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, Connecticut,

Topographic sheets —
Note. — The Geological Survey is making a topographic map of the United
States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected without reference
to political divisions, and are designated bvsome prominent town or natural
feature found on them. Three scales are used, 1:62,500, 1:125,000, and 1:250,000.
These correspond, approximately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear
inch on the map. The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in
height by 11.5 to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width vary-
ing with the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the
reverse of each sheet catalogued below.
About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has been
mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, Connecticut,
Rhode Island, New" Jersey, and the District of Columbia are completely
mapped. Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Survey at 5c each; but in
lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same sheet or of different sheets, the
price is 3c each. In no case can orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless
the sum remitted solely for topographic maps amounts to at least 33.00.

Note. — The publications of the United States Geological Survey consist of
annual reports (restricted to one volume each, beginning with report for 1902),
bulletins, Mineral resources, Professional papers, and Water-supply and irri-
gation papers, which are intended for free distribution; and maps, Mono-
graphs, and folios of the Geologic atlas and the Topographic atlas of the
United States, which are sold at prices ranging from 6c to 811.00 each. A
wholesale rate has been established for topographic and geologic folios, when-
ever the sum transmitted solely for folios at the wholesale price amounts to at
least §5.10; that is, a discount of 40 per cent will be given whenever 34 or more
folios that sell singly for 25c, or their equivalent in higher priced folios,
are ordered at one time. Address the Director of the Geological Survey,

Topographic sheets —
Note. — The Geological Survey is making a topographic map of the United
States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected without reference
to political divisions, and are designated by some prominent town or natural
feature found on them. Three scales are used, 1: 62,500, 1: 125,000, and 1: 250,000.
These correspond, approximately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear
inch on the map. The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in
height by 11.5 to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width vary-
ing with the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the
reverse of each sheet catalogued below.
About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has been
mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, Connecticut,
Rhode Island, New Jersey, and the District of Columbia are completely
mapped. Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Survey at 5c each; but in
lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same sheet or of different sheets, the
price is 3c each. In no case can orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless
the sum remitted solely for topographic maps amounts to at least 83.00.

Topographic sheets —
Note. — The Geological Survey is making a topographic map of the United
States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected without reference
to political divisions, and are designated by some prominent town or natural
feature found on them. Three scales are used, 1:62.500, 1:125,000, and 1:250,000.
These correspond, approximately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear
inch on the map. The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in
height by 11.5 10 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width vary-
ing with the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the
reverse of each sheet catalogued below.
About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has been
mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, Connecticut,
Rhode Island, New Jersey, and the District of Columbia are completely
mapped Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Survey at 5c each; but in
lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same sheet or of different sheets, the
price is 3c each. In no case can orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless
the sum remitted solely for topographic maps amounts to at least 83.00.

Topographic sheets —
Note. — The Geological Survey is making a topographic map of the United
States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected without reference
to political divisions, and are designated bvsome prominent town or natural
feature found on them. Three scales are used, 1: 62,500, 1: 125,000, and 1: 250,000.
These correspond, approximately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear
inch on the map. The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in
height by 11.5 to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width vary-
ing with the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the
reverse of each sheet catalogued below.
About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has been
mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, Connecticut,
Rhode Island, New Jersey, and the District of Columbia are completely
mapped. Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Survey at 5c each; but in
lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same sheet or of different sheets, the
price is 3c each. In no case can orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless
the sum remitted solely for topographic maps amounts to at least $3.00.

Topographic sheets —
Note. — The Geological Survey is making a topographic map of the United
States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected without reference to
political divisions, and are designated by some prominent town or natural
feature found on them. Three scales are used, 1: 62.500, 1:125,000. and 1:250,000,
These correspond, approximately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear
inch on the map. The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in
height by 11.5 to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width vary-
ing with"the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the
reverse of each sheet catalogued below.
About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has been
mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, Connecticut,
Rhode Island," New "Jersey, and the District of Columbia are completely
mapped. Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Survey at 5c each ; but in
lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same sheet or of different sheets, the
price is 3c each. In no case can orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless
the sum remitted solely for topographic maps amounts to at least 83.00.

Topographic sheets—
Note. — The Geological Survey is making a topographic map of the United
States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected without reference to
political divisions, and are designated by some prominent town or natural
feature found on them. Three scales are used, 1:62,500, 1:125,000. and 1:250,000.
These correspond, approximately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear
inch on the map. The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in
height by 11.5 to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width vary-
ing with the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the
reverse of each sheet catalogued below.
About three-tenths of the area of 1 he country, excluding Alaska, has been
mapped, nearly every State being represented." Massachusetts. Connecticut,
Rhode Island, New Jersey, and the District of Columbia are completely
mapped. Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Survey at 5c each ; but in
lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same sheet or of different sheets, the
price is 3c each. In no case can orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless
the sum remitted solely for topographic maps amounts to at least 83.00.

Topographic sheets —
Note. — The Geological Sorvey is making a topographic map of the United
States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected without reference to
political divisions, and are designated by some prominent town or natural
feature found on them. Three scales are used. 1:62,500, 1:125,000, and 1:250,000.
These correspond, approximately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear
inch on the map. The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.6 inches in
height by 11.5 to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width vary-
ing with the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the
reverse of each sheet catalogued below.
About three-tenths of the area of lhe country, excluding Alaska, has been
mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, Connecticut,
Rhode Island," New Jersey, and the District of Columbia are completely
mapped. Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Survey at 5c. each ; but in
lot's of 100 or more copies, whether of the same" sheet or of different sheets, the
price is 3c. each. In no case can orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless
the sum remitted solely for topographic maps amounts to at least 83.00.

Topographic sheets —
Note.— The Geological Survey is making a topographic map of the United
States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected without reference
to political divisions, and are designated bv some prominent town or natural
feature found on them. Three scales are used, 1: 62,500, 1: 125,000. and 1:250,000.
These correspond, approximately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear
inch on the map. The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in
height bv 11.5 to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width
varying with the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on
the reverse of each sheet catalogued below.
About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has been
mapped, nearly everv State being represented. Massachusetts, Connecticut,
Rhode Island,' New Jersey, and the District of Columbia are completely
mapped. Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Survey at 5c. each; but in
lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same sheet or of different sheets, the
price i-< 3c. each. In no case can orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless
the sum remitted solely for topographic maps amounts to at least $3.00.
